Engine exhaust and some of its constituents, and some dust created by power sanding, sawing, grinding, drillingandotherconstructionactivities contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects and other reproductive harm. Some examples of these chemicals are:
Leadfromlead-basedpaints. Crystallinesilicafrombricks. Cementandothermasonryproducts. Arsenicandchromiumfrom chemically treatedlumber.
Your risk from these exposures varies, dependingonhowoftenyoudothistype of work. To reduce your exposure to these chemicals: work in aALWAYS well ventilated area, and work with
approved safety equipment, such as
dust masks that are specially designed to filter out microscopic particles.
WARNING
SILICOSIS WARNING RESPIRATORY HAZARDS
Grinding/cutting/drilling of masonry, concrete, metal and other materials with silica in their composition may give off dust or mists containing crystalline silica. Silica is a basic component of sand, quartz, brick clay, granite and numerous other minerals and rocks. Repeated and/or substantial inhalation of airborne crystalline silica can cause serious or fatal respiratory diseases, including silicosis. In addition, California and some other authorities have listed respirable crystalline silica as a substance known to cause cancer. When cutting such materials, always follow the respiratory precautions mentioned above.
WARNING
Grinding/cutting/drilling of masonry, concrete, metal and other materials can generate dust, mists and fumes containing chemicals known to cause serious or fatal injury or illness, such as respiratory disease, cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm. If you are unfamiliar with the risks associated with the particular process and/or material being cut or the composition of the tool being used, review the material safety data sheet and/or consult your employer, the material manufacturer/supplier, governmental agencies such as OSHA and NIOSH and other sources on hazardous materials. California and some other authorities, for instance, have published lists of substances known to cause cancer, reproductive toxicity, or other harmful effects.
Control dust, mist and fumes at the source where possible. In this regard use good work practices and follow the recommendations of the manufacturers or suppliers, OSHA/NIOSH, and occupational and trade associations. Water should be used for dust suppression when wet cutting is feasible. When the hazards from inhalation of dust, mists and fumes cannot be eliminated, the operator and any bystanders should always wear a respirator approved by NIOSH/MSHA for the materials being used.

HTN-SERIES — RULES FOR SAFE OPERATION
Transporting
ALWAYS shutdown engine before transporting.
Tighten fuel tank cap securely and close fuel petcock to prevent fuel from spilling.
Drain fuel when transporting trowel for long distances or over bad roads.
When placing the trowel on a truck-bed for transport, tie-down the trowel.
If the trowel is being transported via a trailer, make sure the trailer complies with all local and state safety transportation laws. Refer to the following " for basic towing techniques.
Towing Safety Precautions"
always
Use chock-blocks at each wheel when parked to prevent trailer from rolling.
Use the trailer's swivel jack to adjust the trailer height to a level position while parked.
Avoid sudden stops and starts. This can cause the trailer to skid or jack-knife. Smooth, gradual starts and stops will improve towing.
Avoid sharp turns. Trailer should be adjusted to a level position at all times
when towing. Raise and lock trailer wheel stand in the "UP" position when
transporting. DOT requirements include the following:
Towing Safety Precautions

roads.
To reduce the possibility of an accident while transporting the trowel on public roads, always make sure the trailer that supports the trowel and the towing vehicle are in good operating condition and both units are mechanically sound.
The following list of suggestions should be used when towing your trowel:
Make sure the hitch and coupling of the towing vehicle are rated equal to, or greater than the trailer "gross vehicle weight rating" (GVWR) of 6,000 lbs.
ALWAYS inspect the hitch and coupling for wear. NEVER
tow a trailer with defective hitches, couplings, chains, etc.
Check the tire air pressure on both towing vehicle and trailer.
Trailer tires should be inflated to 50 psi cold
the tire tread wear on both vehicles.
ALWAYS make sure the trailer is equipped with "Safety
Chains ".
ALWAYS attach trailer's safety chains to towing vehicle
properly.
ALWAYS make sure the vehicle and trailer directional,
backup, brake, and trailer lights are connected and working
DO NOT exceed the recommended highway speed when towing. Unless posted otherwise, do not exceed 45 MPH highway, and 10 MPH off-road.
